Abstract

Trichilemmal cyst is a benign tumor, developed from hair follicle, located mainly at the scalp. We report a clinical case of unusual location at the finger pulp confirmed by histology. The main differential diagnosis in this reported case was a whitlow. The origin of this cyst is probably the nail matrix whose keratinization is trichilemmal. Surgical excision biopsy allowed a good clinical outcome., (Copyright © 2013 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.)
